Soul Trigger

Chapter 524 The Envoy
Ji Li still vaguely remembered the name of the White Island man, who was Willard III. He was affiliated with the "Dark Side Supervision Group", an official organization of White Island.

Just like Shulong’s “Guardians”, the official awakeners of White Island generally call themselves “Watchers”.

It is not a trivial matter for an immortal-level watcher to come to Mirage City.

After the meeting, Ji Li got an explanation from his little father.

It was almost the same as Ji Li's guess. The reason why Willard III showed up at Mirage University was because of the expansion of the dragon vein:
"They are the White Island personnel from the Anomaly Calculation Consortium."

The voice of King Yuanling came from the other end of the phone:

"I talked to you about the expansion of the dragon veins before. Now visitors from other countries are coming one after another. Romero Willard III is one of them. He arrived earlier than people from other countries."

After the Dragon Leap Festival incident, the unwarranted expansion of the dragon veins not only caught Shulong off guard, but also left the surrounding countries confused.

These included the Black Sun Prefecture, Silla, the Asian Federation, the Mediterranean Union, and even the White Island in Europe. This meant that the entire Eurasian continent was affected, and it was a large-scale international abnormal event.

This was the result of initial negotiations with the Vision Calculation Consortium. At first, they almost thought that it was the Shulong people who were attacking.

The Anomaly Measurement Consortium is a large organization that is responsible for resolving international anomalies and reconciling the conflicts caused by such incidents. However, it is not an association but more of a platform for dialogue.

But Shulong couldn't let the Anomaly Calculation Consortium intervene in the local investigation. This was a family matter.

So the final result of the wrangling is that the affected countries have to solve the problem themselves.

In fact, the dragon veins have only begun to spread, covering the real dimensions of many countries.

In some places, there is no such thing as a cluster of spiritual hubs, so there is no trouble.

Some countries that are facing serious abnormal threats and do not have sufficient local capabilities to deal with them, such as the Mediterranean Community, are so happy that they cannot even wait.

However, White Island, which was affected to the end, and Black Sun Palace and the Asian Federation, which are currently covered by the entire dragon vein, may be quite unhappy.

Baidao and Heirifu both have their own clustered spiritual hubs, and Longmai is also a clustered spiritual hub.

Buddy, you suddenly got so big and came close to me, and sparks flew. I will definitely send someone to ask you what you mean.

As for the Asian Federation, it is also quite special. There are quite a lot of clustered spiritual hubs and quite a few religions in that place. The development of the awakened ones presents a very mysterious and messy situation. One more dragon vein does not make much, and one less does not make much.

So I just made a few remarks at the Anomaly Measurement Consortium, and that was it.

Finally, the joint visiting delegation led by White Island and Black Sun Mansion is currently entering Shulong, but Willard III arrived first.

"Will it affect my trip to Europe?"

Ji Li's original plan for dealing with Li Jiangxing was to use a personality splitting operation to deceive the Tower of Babel's assassination request, and King Yuanling was responsible for covering for Ji Li.

That is, if the truth is revealed and Tombstone's attitude deteriorates, then they can only take the risk of killing Tombstone. Later, Ji Li and King Guling had contact, which added another layer of insurance.

However, things developed too quickly. Li Jiangxing had problems of his own and eventually died, so these arrangements became useless.

Therefore, King Yuanling, who was deeply involved in it, knew that Ji Li was at a critical moment of sneaking into the Tower of Babel, which meant following the tombstone to Europe:

"You must go to the Tower of Babel?"

"I have to go there."

Regarding the crystallization of the alien world, the power of Da Lei was divided into time domain fragments and held in the hands of the Tower of Babel, which were connected to each other.

The mystery of Ji Li’s memory has not been solved yet. This is one of the ultimate goals in his long-term plan and is related to his own existence.

King Yuanling was silent. Ji Li's plan was his plan, and it was a good thing to have his own way, but strictly speaking, he did not want Ji Li to leave Shulong territory again.

In his opinion, as a country with an ecosystem of top awakeners, Wang Xuan is enough for Ji Li to experience all the training he needs.

Why would the child that I had brought back with so much difficulty want to run away?

After a slight hesitation, King Yuanling said:

"I understand. When are you going to leave?"

"Recently, but I haven't received any response from the other side. It should be because of the dragon vein incident that the guy has temporarily hidden away."

"Tell me when the time is set, and I'll find a way for you."

"As expected of little daddy."

"Shut up, brat." The childish voice of King Yuanling scolded from the other side: "How was the awarding ceremony today?"

"It's over a long time ago. I'm already in the Heart Lab."

Ji Li fiddled with the equipment in the laboratory.

"Then you better be careful. Li Jiangxing might have hidden something in there. Don't make a mistake and sleep for another week."

"So much nonsense."

Ji Li hung up the phone.

In addition to participating in the trust-granting ceremony today, his more important purpose is to come to the Red Heart Laboratory that was blocked by the Imperial Guards to look for clues.

As for why he was able to enter the sealed Red Heart Laboratory, it was because he was one of the directly related persons and the Imperial Guards would let him pass.

However, if it is a joint visiting delegation, and the Black Sun Mansion is included in it, doesn’t that mean that Crazy Woman will also send people over?
Ji Li felt that he had discovered a blind spot.

When Silla faked his death, he knew that Crazy Woman had come to his "funeral", but she actually left peacefully. You said that she was giving face to the Shulong staff, but it doesn't make sense given her temper.

So Ji Li thought that this guy must have seen something.

If that's the case, wouldn't she take this opportunity to come to Shulong in person?
But as the head of the Hellhound clan, this guy has a high status and position, so he shouldn't come here in person.

Ji Li hoped that he was overthinking it, otherwise, with this guy's messed up brain, he couldn't imagine what kind of things would happen when he came to Shulong.

Besides, even if she had come here, she should have already followed the tombstone to Europe.

Putting the matter of the so-called visiting group behind him, Ji Li put the instrument in his hand back to its original place, sent a message to Tombstone which received no reply, and began to concentrate on searching for the Red Heart Laboratory.

He had to see if there was any more information recorded about the Ouroboros power here.

……

Prince Yuanling hung up the phone and returned to the meeting room in the Forbidden City.

When I got to the door, I made eye contact with the smoking Third Prince:

"What have you thought about what I said?" asked the third prince.

King Yuanling shook his head:
"I thought you were just saying that."

The Third Prince smiled and said, "How can I just say this casually? I am serious. Fifth sister is at this age now, and the confrontation between you and Prince Fuling also requires some support from the royal family, right?"

"Support or not has nothing to do with this matter, and you shouldn't try to find a way out with me. I won't interfere with Ji Li's decision."

"Then I'll let the Fifth Princess get in touch with him first?"

"Your Highness, please handle it however you want." "That's fine."

"Have the people from the Black Sun Mansion been connected?"

"I've been waiting for you." The third prince crushed his cigarette butt and followed King Yuanling into the conference room.

In the huge conference hall, in addition to the two of them, the Ninth Prince was also present.

He was wearing a golden suit, and changed his previous casual posture. He sat upright on the chair with a solemn expression, which made the Third Prince, who was familiar with him, startled:
"What are you doing?"

The Ninth Prince slowly turned his head:
"Brother, it is against royal etiquette to keep our distinguished guests waiting for too long."

Third Prince: "?"

At this time, a voice came from the speakers. The Third Prince and King Yuanling looked at the large screen hanging at the end of the room and immediately understood.

There, a cool woman wearing a kimono and with long green hair like a waterfall smiled and greeted the two people who came in:

"It's okay. You two are both busy. I'm willing to wait."

The Third Prince twitched his lips, glanced at the Ninth Prince who was pretending to be serious, and sat down with King Yuanling.

Seeing a beautiful woman acting like a big shot is like this.

"Welcome, Master Yuya Xun. This is King Yuanling, the person in charge of all the events of this visiting group."

King Yuanling nodded towards Yuya Xun:
"Hello, Lord Huojin."

At the same time, he was also looking at the woman with long green hair.

Lord Huojin, the head of the Hellhound Clan, is also the most outstanding practitioner of the Heart Blade and has achieved complete and perfect enlightenment.

The Hellhound Clan does not have a good reputation among Shulong. This large clan, which controls the entire ecology of awakened people in the Black Sun Mansion, is a super oligarch in the Black Sun Mansion.

After Huo Jinzhu came to power, he acted even more arrogantly and domineeringly, with the demeanor of a dictator.

In the actions carried out externally, he is a cold-blooded butcher who kills people without hesitation. Today's connection was confirmed only after internal discussions.

The existence of Lord Huojin himself is somewhat mysterious to the outside world, so Shulong is not quite sure about this guy's specific background.

But King Yuanling knew that no matter what his reputation was, this man was a super strong man with the same level of strength as King Guling, even stronger than himself, so he naturally could not be negligent in his attitude.

Although the expansion of the dragon vein was classified as an international abnormal incident due to the wrangling, the incident happened to Shulong himself, so the few people were prepared for this guy to suddenly visit them in person remotely with ulterior motives.

For example, taking advantage of visits to multiple countries, they intended to gain benefits from the perspective of dragon veins.

The Shenzhou Dragon Vein cluster is extremely special in the whole world. In response to this, the Shulong upper echelons have frequently fought with the awakened leaders of different countries in their years of secret society diplomacy.

Generally, they intend to conduct research and infiltrate the Shenzhou Dragon Veins from an indirect or direct perspective through negotiation agreements and exchange of interests.

Many of them were studying abroad in Shulong, and there were also many intercepted spies among the students entering Liangyi University.

The purpose of these people is generally to come for the Shenzhou Dragon Vein, some for research, some for destruction, and some to create chaos.

Before the Black Sun Mansion, Bai Dao had already connected with them once, and some of them showed interest in the Shenzhou Dragon Vein itself.

Therefore, the connections of the Black Sun Mansion are most likely centered around the Shenzhou Dragon Veins, and they are fully prepared for this.

After thinking about it, Prince Yuanling and the Third Prince looked at each other and nodded.

"Time is precious, let's get straight to the point today." King Yuanling said:
"If you want to talk about the joint visiting group, we have received the request from the Black Sun Palace and provided you with a green channel to ensure that the visiting group will not be hindered by any dragon veins."

"But if it's something other than the visit, I think the head of the Yuya family has prepared himself mentally. We apologize again for the sudden expansion of the Shenzhou Dragon Vein."

"But we will still reject all negotiations and requests against Shenzhou Dragon Vein itself. This is our bottom line. Apart from this bottom line, we welcome you to discuss anything with us."

Hearing King Yuanling's words, Yuya Xun smiled slightly:
"The Dragon Vein of Shenzhou? It is indeed an interesting spiritual axis, but I am not interested in it."

The third prince smiled and said:
"That would be the best, but just because you appear to have no interest doesn't mean you have no interest behind the scenes, or in private."

"So no matter what you or your think tank thinks, please don't mess with the Dragon Vein of Shenzhou."

Yuya Xun said:

"You don't need to emphasize it too much. I am not here today for the Shenzhou Dragon Vein, nor for the visiting delegation. I am here with sincerity..."

As she spoke, her eyes flickered, causing King Yuanling to frown and instinctively feel a chill.

For some reason, he always felt that Lord Huojin was staring at him.

In his eyes, Lord Huojin's appearance was just a part of his skin. To him, he was a completely perfect and powerful being.

And being stared at by such a strong man with eyes that he couldn't understand was never a good thing.

"Tell me about your sincerity." He said, suppressing the discomfort.

Yuya Xun pushed his hand forward:
"For many years, the relationship between the Cerberus Clan and the Forbidden City has not been good, but times have changed."

"At present, your cluster spirit has experienced an unknown abnormality, and with the presence of visits from many countries, I am sure you are under a lot of pressure."

"I want to provide you with some help within my ability, and let us establish a deeper relationship and friendship between us..."

As Yuya Xun spoke, his eyes gradually narrowed, and the look he showed towards King Yuanling became more and more obvious, causing the other two to not help but glance over.

King Yuanling's expression remained unchanged:
“As long as it is not related to the Shenzhou Dragon Vein, we are happy to establish most friendly forms of cooperation with the Black Sun Mansion, but it doesn’t matter what you say.”

Yuya Xun smiled even more:
"Okay, now my Hellhound clan has a daughter whose age and strength are just right for marriage with you. Is the Forbidden City willing?"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them looked at each other.

Although the marriage here has political elements in it, in the world of awakeners, it is not the concept of Shulong and Heiri Mansion.

Rather, it is the concept between the "Forbidden City" and the "Hellhound Clan" from the perspective of a secret society.

The three of them were silent for a while. After exchanging glances, King Yuanling spoke:
"We need information to assess..."

"No need to evaluate." Yuya Xun smiled like a blooming flower: "It's me."

Third Prince: "?"

King Yuanling: “?”

Ninth Prince: “!”

The flamboyant man in the golden suit's eyes suddenly lit up.

King Yuanling: "You?"

Yuya Xun stroked her long hair:
"I'm still a young girl, what's so surprising about that?"

"Or... the Forbidden City doesn't like me?"
